President Biden should do everything in his power to end death row executions in the United States, UN-appointed independent rights experts said on Thursday 11 March 2021.
The call comes after a resumption of federal executions in the US in the last year of Donald Trump’s Presidency, in which 13 people were put to death.
In their appeal to the White House, the rights experts insisted that the death penalty served “no deterrent value and cannot be reconciled with the right to life”.
